Semenova, Ekaterina Semenovna (1786–1849), Russian actress, whose main triumphs were in the tragedies of Shakespeare,
Racine (particularly
Phèdre), and Schiller. The daughter of a serf, she was sent at 10 years of age to the Theatre School in St Petersburg (Leningrad), and seven years later made her formal début, attracting attention by her acting in the somewhat frigid tragedies of
Vladislav Ozerov (1770–1816). She made a great impression on her contemporaries by her beauty and her superb contralto voice, and
Pushkin dedicated some of his poems to her.
